EMILY ANNE
Owner & Licensed Master Esthetician
Emily graduated from The Aveda Institutes’ Esthiology Science program in April of 2013. Since then, she has accomplished training with PCA Skin to become a certified professional in skin biology and chemical peels, and Advanced Esthetic Training with Complexions & Circadia Skin which involved a double concentration in dermaplaning.

​
In December of 2016, Emily moved from Lake Charles, Louisiana to Virginia Beach, Virginia, and she continues to thrive in the Hampton Roads community.

Allison Didio
Licensed Master Esthetician
Allison was born and raised here in Virginia. She is a graduate from The Chrysm Institute of Esthetics in Virginia Beach, VA where she completed both Professional and Master Esthetics programs.
Growing up in a generation that loves to utilize Instagram filters, it is so incredibly easy to compare yourself to others and lose sight of how beautiful you are in real life. Allison found herself questioning how she could help others in feeling confident in their own beauty for themselves and it lead her to the esthetics field. Allison is passionate about aiding clients in their acne healing journey and being able to walk alongside a client during the ups and downs of active acne. Her favorite service to offer is Micro-needling when treating her clients! Whether it's for buffing out fine lines & wrinkles or helping her acne clients with acne scarring. She's the micro-needling Queen at EAE!
In her free time, you can find Allison hanging out with friends and family or nose deep in a good book!
